Child Care Gifts

What is everyone giving daycare teachers for Christmas? I have 4 teachers that need to give gifts to, so I am trying to find something inexpensive, but not crappy... Or if I do a gift card, would $25 per teacher be ok or is that a slap in the face?

She is in a center. I was planning in giving gifts to the 2 teachers that cared for her in the infant room and for the 2 teachers in the toddler room that she is in now. Do I really need to get gifts for her prior teachers? I don't know what the gift giving etiquette is. She just started in March, so this is my first Christmas doing this.

I only did gifts to the current teachers. There were tons of parents that never gave any. I think its more common to give more if its an in home because that one person is with your child at every stage.

Ours is in a daycare. I gave $20 coffee cards to her 3 caregivers for ECE day. A $25 MasterCard to her favorite that moved to a new school. Don't know about Christmas but probably $20 or a body lotion gift box. I like that idea from pp.

at our daycare we usually give gift vouchers to the 4 teachers and sign cards. all the parents chip in and someone buys the vouchers. we each give 20 to 40 euros, 15 children in the group, so each teacher gets a decent gift voucher.

I usually only give the current teacher a gift. I get mine from Pink Mondays (www.pinkmondays.com) This year I did mini Market Totes with their names embroidered on them. Mrs. XXX. Not too expensive and there is a 10% off code right now. I got them for my older son's Kindergarten teacher and younger son's in-home provider.

I was a home care provider for a lady who worked in a child care centre. She gave me things like baked goods, a card with a giant bag of m&m's and a nice candle.

I was surprised and delighted. I don't think anything is too cheap. It's nice to feel like the parent thinks you are doing a great job with their children because it is the most important job in the world.

When my oldest was in school I didn't feel it was necessary to give teacher gifts (I guess because my mother never did this when we were young)...when I did give a gift for a teacher I really liked, it was usually something homemade like bath bombs and I failed at how they turned out lol.

I have friends that are teachers and they said teacher gifts are not necessary but always appreciated and a lot of kids can't afford anything. Homemade goodies usually get tossed out. Gift card are always nice in any denomination. Many people give $5 gift cards where I come from.
